Favorite RPG Accessory

Most of what I run is D&D and D&D related. For that sort of game, my favorite accessorty is actually a line of related items. A while back, Crystal Caste had produced a set of square grid mats with a plastic coating that works with wet and dry erase markers and permanent markers. Unlike the old vinyl mats, you can write on them with almost anything without staining them.
Paizo bought them from Crystal Caste and started their own line of Flip Mats. They have also used the same coating on a metal board and magnetic tokens to create an initiative tracker. Given that most of my games are D&D, which works best with maps and needs decent initiative tracking, this is one of my favorite accessories.
